Carne

The most astonishing, inspiring, natural course that you are ever likely to see” – Keith Ging, Golf International

Carne is a challenge in stamina as well as golfing skills, situated amongst great sand dunes on the north west Atlantic coast of Blacksod Bay.

The natural and unspoilt environment that surrounds Carne makes it "everything you could ever ask for from the 1st tee to the 18th green" - James W. Finnegan - (Emerald Fairways), and a genuine “must-play” course that you’ll remember long after your round.

Connemara

The Connemara Golf links is bounded on three sides by the Atlantic Ocean, while on the 'inland' side the golfer can enjoy an excellent view of the 'Twelve Bens' mountains.

The prettiest hole of the course is the 13th, where the golfer will probably be more fascinated by the view of the Atlantic Ocean and by the rest of the course than by his ball!

There are 27 holes at Connemara and A & B are the Championship nines with the newer C nine holes offering a good test, with tight fairways and a par of 35, if either of the other nines are unavailable.
